Privacy is a freedom of the past, computers and cell phones took that away; for it was too precious to ever last. We now record every word neighbors say; although we once talked to them face-to-face, computers and cell phones took that away. The internet is a chaotic place, where a like's equivalent to a friend; although we once talked to friends face to face. People trade reality for pretend, for life is a fantasy on the net; where trolls and bullies feel free to offend. A.I. poses an even direr threat; humanity's fabric might well unweave, for life is a fantasy on the net. Within the matrix world of make-believe, privacy is a freedom of the past. Humanity's fabric might well unweave; for it was too precious to ever last.

Well said! Taking pictures of violence all too much. It was bad enough when a crowd wouldn’t intercede but now let the cameras roll. Prayer!
